To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
True it is that, during the embryonic period, self-consciousness had not become a part of our being. It had not awakened from its sub- merged, prenatal, gestative slumbering in the great womb of Nature. It had not and did not come to birth for some years after physical birth. It may, however, be assumed with great positiveness that the various manifestations that are characteristic of the later stages of embryonic life, and which I have termed em- bryonic consciousness, constitute a forecast of... the advent of ego ; and that when it came we experienced spiritual birth, and began to live Discussion 1 2 1 in a spiritual world. We then, for the first time, apprehended or discovered our own per- sonal identity, and began to " retire into our- selves and become conscious of our own nature and of its high destiny. " Before this event every sense of want or need related simply and solely to the physical. Up to seif-conscious man, development was guided purely by the sense of physical needs. No animal had an instinct, a passion, a propen- sity, or appetite which did not have reference to physical sustenance, defense, or propaga- tion.
